    6.06 will not see my partitions / qtparted -: critical error during ped_disk_new

    I have my 200 gig sata drive divide this way, this was done months ago on breezy. But since then I had to reinstall windows several times and have not been back on kubuntu. but all  the partitions are still there.

    20 gigs ntfs windows xp
    40 gigs fat32 games
    120 gigs fat32 storage

    10 gig /root
    5 gig / home
    rest /swap

    but dapper will not see a single partition again all it sees is the 200gig drive.

    You have to have windows in first to have linux see the linux and windows.

    so what do I do.

    When I booted into linux and then click on install. was a few error but made it to the partition screen.

    Picked manual and did not show me any of the already made partitions.

    again

    what do I do.

    thanks all in advance for any help

    I wonder if your installation disk or CD drive are defective? Can you read other CDs on the same machine?

      Everything works fine in XP. I see all fat32 partition.

      Part240 partitioning tools see's all the partition.

      Just kubuntu see the 200gig sata drive as a 200 gig sata drive.

      It has nothing to do with the cd drive. its kubuntu not seeing the partition at all.

        Ok, just saved everything and went ahead with an install. after the system booted into the boot disk of kubuntu dapper I clicked on the install button.

        before I got to choose what partitions where what, it seem to find most of them. I get this error
        from qtparted "critical error during ped_disk_new!"

        what does this means, it happens twice. then I pick the partitions or swap / and home then another error. seems qtparted didn't work.

        any suggustions.....

            If you click next/continue what ever it is, you will see all the partitions.
